Testimonials

"I had the opportunity to take a tour of the accommodations offered at Holly Knoll & The Moton Campus. The history of the premises alone was enough to take my breath away. In addition to the history, the views and knowledge of the staff were GREAT!"

SHALIMAR BRAZIER

"We spent the weekend, and enjoyed the beautiful Institute."

MICHAEL WRIGHT

"Aside from being a historic site its a lakefront property as well. The buildings capture the original character of its age and intent. Wonderful for our retreat and the great meals were prepared by a known chef in the Richmond Metro Area!"

REGINALD MEBANE

"I attended the Leadership Program during my senior year at Virginia State University. It was not only a great monthly getaway from campus, but a life changing experience. I met my newest best friend and had the pleasure of meeting 24 other amazing individuals."
